  • @balletjones The others are Olga Chenchikova and her husband Baziev.

  • @palubob I think Lezhnina seemed perform both of the performance. And Ruzimatov is brilliant!

  • 2 diff @mariinskeyen Theme & Variations intercut togeher,1 w/ Lezhnina & Ruzimatov (the couple I prefer)

  • the pas de deux seems off the music....hmmmm, maybe my computer?

  • I knew I recognised Lezhnina! Thank you for posting this; it is lovely to see her dancing (parts of) this ballet.

  • really not so well danced, the best is at 17:56 when the first girl on the right starts her entre lassé too early...:-(

  • This is a composite made up of several performances??

  • They dance it a little oddly...
